Saint Paul's Neighborhood Network Teams

Join one of our Neighborhood Network Teams to connect with other youth workers and learn about resources to support youth success!

Sprockets builds upon the momentum, passion, and energy of four grassroots neighborhood network teams that have been working for years to improve out-of-school time opportunities for Saint Paul’s youth by creating better programming, improving access, and breaking down transportation barriers in their neighborhoods.

Sprockets network partners are encouraged to get involved in these Neighborhood Network Teams. It’s a great way to share ideas, best practices, and fellowship while meeting others who share a passion for building brighter futures through OST. All meetings are open to all!

If you are interested in attending a meeting or just want more information, contact Jocelyn Wiedow or sign up for the newsletter, which includes location details for all Neighborhood Network Team meetings.
